Ultra Friday Nights and library Saturdays are here

STOCKTON — The Cesar Chavez Library will be open 10 a.m.- 5 p.m. Saturday as it begins its new Saturday hours.

These are the first Saturday hours at the library since the city experienced its financial woes in 2009.

But the night before the library’s doors opened, Ultra Friday Nights began at four Stockton community centers. Hours at the Arnold Rue, Seifert, Stribley and Van Buskirk community centers were extended from 6-11 p.m. to provide youths in the city with a new place to spend Friday night during the summer. The additional hours will run Fridays through Aug. 4.

Both the library and community center hours are being funded by the quarter-cent Measure M sales tax for library and recreation services.

Events today at the library include:

11 a.m.: Family storytime.

12:30 p.m.: Bricks4kidz.

1 p.m.: MakerSpace.

2:30 p.m.: Harvest Home Sanctuary.

3 p.m.: Trivia on the Terrace.
